EPSRC FIBE3 CDT Generic Studentship

Generic application

We have funding for a number of 1+3 MRes/PHD studentships, in collaboration with industry, as part of our EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Future Infrastructure and Built Environment: Unlocking Net Zero (FIBE3 CDT), under the four following themes:

  • Current and disruptive technologies
  • Circularity and whole life approach
  • Al-driven digitalisation and data
  • Risk-based systems thinking and connectivity

In submitting a general application, use your research proposal to articulate how your research interest aligns with the FIBE3 themes (see Roadmap and Research Enablers), and identifies the FIBE3 CDT industry partner(s) to whom your research would be relevant. The CDT will then attempt to identify a suitable supervisor, industry partner, and project based on your stated research interests.

    EPSRC funding (home fees+stipend) is only available to eligible home students in the first instance. A limited number of international students can be considered for funding at a later stage in the recruitment process.

    For technical enquires please e-mail Professor Abir Al-Tabbaa (aa22@cam.ac.uk). For general enquiries, please email Ella Harding-Rolls (cdtcivil-courseadmin@cam.ac.uk) 

    Applicants should have (or expect to obtain by the start date) a high 2.1 degree, preferably at masters level, in a relevant engineering or science discipline.
